Abstract
Description
Technical Field
[0001] The invention relates to the technical field of high-pressure hydrogen storage tanks, and in particular to a hydrogen production and energy storage system. Background Art
[0002] High-pressure hydrogen storage technology is a technical means of compressing hydrogen under high-pressure conditions and storing it in a container with high-pressure resistance. Specifically, hydrogen is compressed by a compressor until its pressure reaches the high-pressure standard that can be loaded into the hydrogen storage container, and then it is stored in a specially designed and manufactured pressure-resistant container. It is one of the most commonly used hydrogen storage technology categories and has high reliability.
[0003] If a high-pressure container is damaged or leaks, high-pressure hydrogen will be released in large quantities in an instant, which is likely to cause a serious safety accident. During the storage of high-pressure hydrogen, it is necessary to monitor and dynamically adjust the air pressure inside the container in real time to prevent explosion accidents. Since the energy density of hydrogen itself is relatively low, conventional compressors often need to be set up in multiple groups to meet the requirements, and their energy consumption is high. When the pressure reaches a high level, the energy consumption will show an exponential growth trend. Summary of the invention

[0006] The present invention is a high-pressure storage device suitable for hydrogen. Hydrogen is introduced into a compression mechanism, compressed through multi-stage compression, and loaded into an inner tank in a high-pressure state through a hydrogen discharge pipe. A pressure sensor detects the pressure distribution in various places in the inner tank in real time, and sends an electrical signal to a second motor. The pressure equalizing mechanism rotates under the drive of the hydrogen introduced, and the high-pressure hydrogen is evenly distributed in the inner tank to avoid damage caused by uneven pressure in the inner tank. When the pressure sensor detects that the air pressure in the inner tank increases abnormally, it sends an electrical signal to the servo motor. The servo motor adjusts the sensitivity of the pilot valve, so that the pilot valve links the main valve to open as the air pressure increases, and the inner tank is urgently depressurized to ensure that the pressure in the inner tank will not be over-pressured and cause an explosion.

[0008] The hydrogen compressed to a high-pressure state in the compression mechanism is introduced into the inner tank through the intake valve pipe and the air inlet. The temperature is monitored in real time by a temperature sensor. A number of pressure sensors linearly distributed along the axis of the inner tank monitor the air pressure at various locations in the inner tank in real time. When hydrogen needs to be extracted, the exhaust valve pipe is opened to discharge the hydrogen. The temperature control medium is circulated through the heat exchange winding pipe to ensure that the temperature of the inner tank is constant, thereby avoiding explosion caused by rising hydrogen pressure in a high-temperature environment.
[0009] Furthermore, the compression mechanism also includes a shell, a first motor, an eccentric shaft, a hydrogen inlet pipe and a vortex mechanism. The vortex mechanism is provided with several groups, and the several groups of vortex mechanisms are linearly evenly distributed along the axis of the shell. The vortex mechanism includes a fixed disk, an eccentric disk and a limit ring. The limit ring is provided with a sliding hole. The hydrogen inlet pipe is slidably connected to a group of sliding holes away from the hydrogen exhaust pipe. The shell is fixedly connected to the assembly frame, the first motor and the fixed disk. The eccentric shaft is fixedly connected to the output end of the first motor and a group of eccentric disks away from the hydrogen exhaust pipe. A vent is provided on the fixed disk. The shell is provided with a first through hole and a second through hole. The first through hole is fixedly connected to the hydrogen inlet pipe, and the hydrogen exhaust pipe is fixedly connected to the second through hole and a group of vents away from the first motor.
[0010] The first motor outputs a fixed-axis torque to the eccentric shaft, and an eccentric disk is installed at one end of the eccentric shaft away from the first motor. The end of the eccentric shaft away from the first motor performs eccentric circular motion, and the eccentric shaft transmits torque to the eccentric disk to perform eccentric circular motion. Hydrogen is introduced through the hydrogen inlet pipe, the first through hole, and a group of sliding holes away from the hydrogen exhaust pipe. The hydrogen is compressed in a group of eccentric disks, fixed disks, and limit circles away from the hydrogen exhaust pipe as the eccentric disk performs eccentric circular motion, and is introduced into the next-stage vortex compression mechanism through the vents and sliding holes between two adjacent groups of vortex compression mechanisms. The hydrogen that has completed multiple compressions in the multi-stage vortex compression mechanism is introduced into the intake valve pipe through a group of vents and the hydrogen exhaust pipe away from the first motor.
[0011] Furthermore, the vortex pressure mechanism also includes a first vortex rail, a second vortex rail, a first spring, a limit ring, a second spring and an eccentric column.

[0012] External hydrogen enters through the hydrogen inlet pipe, the first through hole, and a group of sliding holes away from the hydrogen exhaust pipe. The eccentric disk performs eccentric circular motion. The protrusion moves back and forth in the limit frame to squeeze the first spring. The outer edge of the second vortex track contacts the limit ring. The protrusion moves back and forth in the through groove to squeeze the second spring. The eccentric disk is equipped with the second vortex track. The second vortex track performs eccentric circular motion. The limit frame and the through groove work together to limit the eccentric circular motion of the eccentric disk and the limit ring, and limit the rotation of the eccentric disk. The first vortex track is fixedly assembled on the fixed disk. As the second vortex track performs eccentric circular motion relative to the first vortex track, the second vortex track and the first vortex track The two vortex rails mesh with each other to form a number of dynamically changing crescent-shaped chambers. The hydrogen is in a sealed space composed of an eccentric disk, a fixed disk, and a limit ring far away from the hydrogen exhaust pipe. The hydrogen located at the outer edge of the second vortex rail is compressed step by step by multiple chambers. Finally, the compressed hydrogen is squeezed to the center of the vortex circle and passes into the next-level vortex mechanism through the vents and sliding holes between the two adjacent groups of vortex pressure mechanisms. The eccentric column is equipped with the second vortex rail and the adjacent eccentric disk. The eccentric column performs eccentric circular motion in the vent along with the second vortex rail. The eccentric column transmits the eccentric circular motion torque to the adjacent eccentric disk. The hydrogen completes multiple compressions in the multi-stage vortex pressure mechanism.
[0013] Furthermore, the pressure relief mechanism also includes a throttle, the main valve also includes a first valve cover, the pilot valve also includes a second valve body, the first valve body is further provided with a first side hole, the first valve cover is provided with a second side hole, the second valve body is provided with a second bottom hole and a third side hole, the throttle is connected to the first side hole and the second bottom hole through a pipeline, and the second side hole is connected to the third side hole through a pipeline.
[0014] The first bottom hole on the first valve body is connected to the inner tank through a pipeline. When the gas pressure in the inner tank is within the threshold range, the high-pressure hydrogen in the inner tank flows back to the main valve through the first side hole, the throttle, the second valve body, and the third side hole. At this time, the main valve is in a closed state.
[0015] Furthermore, the main valve also includes a third spring and a valve core cover. The first valve body is also provided with a first pressure relief port, which is arranged on a side of the first valve body away from the first side hole. The first valve cover is fixedly connected to the first valve body, the third spring is fixedly connected to the first valve cover and the valve core cover, the valve core cover is slidably connected to the first valve cover and the first valve body, the first valve cover and the upper side of the valve core cover form a main air chamber, and the first valve body and the lower side of the valve core cover form a pressure inlet chamber.
[0016] When the air pressure in the inner tank is within the threshold range, the pilot valve is closed, and the high-pressure hydrogen in the main valve is passed through the first bottom hole, and flows back to the main air chamber through the first side hole, the throttle, the second valve body, and the third side hole. At this time, the air pressure in the main air chamber is equal to that in the pressure-inducing chamber. The valve core cover is sealed and contacts the first valve body under the action of the third spring, so that the first pressure relief port is not connected, and the hydrogen in the pressure-inducing chamber cannot push open the valve core cover. The high-pressure hydrogen in the inner tank is not connected to the outside world. When the air pressure rises abnormally, the pilot valve is opened, and the hydrogen in the main air chamber is The hydrogen in the pressure chamber passes through the first side hole and the throttle into the pilot valve for discharge. Since the throttle blocks the discharge of the hydrogen in the pressure chamber, the discharge rate of the hydrogen in the main air chamber is much greater than that in the pressure chamber. The air pressure in the pressure chamber is greater than that in the main air chamber. The valve core cover moves toward the direction close to the first valve cover to squeeze the third spring. The hydrogen in the main air chamber is discharged into the outside through the first pressure relief port. As the air pressure decreases, the pilot valve closes to achieve the effect of emergency pressure relief.
[0017] Furthermore, the pilot valve also includes a second valve cover, a fourth spring and a valve core column. The second valve cover is fixedly connected to the second valve body and the servo motor. The second valve body is also provided with a second pressure relief port. The second pressure relief port is arranged on the side of the second valve body away from the third side hole. The fourth spring is fixedly connected to the output end of the servo motor and the valve core column. The valve core column is slidably connected to the second valve cover and the second valve body.
[0018] When the air pressure in the inner tank rises abnormally, the hydrogen pressure in the second valve body overcomes the set pressure of the fourth spring, and the hydrogen pressure pushes the valve core column to move toward the second valve cover. The valve core column squeezes the fourth spring, and the valve core column no longer blocks the second pressure relief port, so that the pilot valve is connected to the outside world. The servo motor outputs torque to twist the fourth spring away from one end of the valve core column, thereby changing the set pressure of the fourth spring and adjusting the sensitivity of the pilot valve.
[0019] Furthermore, the pressure equalizing mechanism also includes a first gear, a second gear, fan blades and a crank. The second motor is fixedly connected to the ring frame. The fan blades and the crank are provided with several groups. The several groups of fan blades and the crank are evenly distributed along the circumference of the ring frame. The output end of the second motor is fixedly connected to the first gear. The first gear is meshed with the tooth surface of the second gear. The second gear is fixedly connected to a group of fan blades. The fan blades are rotatably connected to the ring frame, and the fan blades are hinged to the crank.
[0020] The hydrogen compressed to a high-pressure state is passed into the inner tank through the intake valve pipe and the air inlet. The high-pressure hydrogen blows on the fan blades, causing the ring frame to rotate as a whole. When the air pressure sensor detects that the pressure distribution in the inner tank is uneven, it sends an electrical signal to the second motor. The second motor outputs a fixed-axis torque to the first gear, and the first gear meshes with the tooth surface of the second gear to transmit the torque to a group of fan blades, causing the fan blades to rotate around their own axes. Several groups of fan blades evenly distributed along the circumference of the ring frame are synchronized by crank hinges. When the inclination angle between the fan blades and the ring frame increases, the high-pressure hydrogen passing through the fan blades is accelerated to diffuse to the inner wall of the inner tank, so that the hydrogen in the inner tank is evenly distributed.
[0021] Compared with the prior art, the beneficial effects of the present invention are as follows: the present invention designs a compression mechanism, through which the fixed-axis torque is output by the first motor to the eccentric disk to perform eccentric circular motion, the second vortex track meshes with the first vortex track to form a plurality of dynamically changing chambers, and the hydrogen on the outer edge is compressed step by step by multiple chambers and squeezed toward the center of the vortex circle, and passes into the next stage through the air vents between the two adjacent groups, and the eccentric column transmits the torque to the eccentric disk of the next stage, and the hydrogen completes multiple compressions. By designing a multi-stage interconnected vortex compressed hydrogen, the compression efficiency and hydrogen purity are improved, while the load on the compressor is reduced and the service life is extended; the present invention designs a pressure relief mechanism, when the air pressure in the inner tank is within the threshold value, the pilot valve is closed, and the hydrogen flows back to the main air chamber through the first side hole, the throttle, and the second valve body. The air pressure in the main air chamber is equal to that in the pressure induction chamber, the valve core cover is sealed, the first pressure relief port is not connected, and when the air pressure rises abnormally, the hydrogen pressure overcomes the set pressure of the fourth spring, and the valve core column The valve core cover is displaced, and the hydrogen in the main air chamber is discharged into the outside through the first pressure relief port. As the air pressure decreases, the pilot valve is closed to achieve the function of emergency pressure relief and ensure the safety of the tank body. The present invention designs an air equalization mechanism. When the inclination angle between the fan blades and the ring frame increases, the high-pressure hydrogen passing through the fan blades is accelerated to diffuse to the inner wall of the inner tank, so that the hydrogen in the inner tank is evenly distributed, and damage caused by uneven pressure of the inner tank is avoided. The present invention can compress hydrogen in multiple stages, improve compression efficiency and hydrogen purity, reduce the load of the compressor, detect the internal air pressure, and actively release and equalize the pressure to ensure the safety of the tank body without explosion.

The first pressure relief port 4213 is arranged on the side of the first valve body 421 away from the first side hole 4212. The first valve cover 422 is fixedly connected to the first valve body 421. The third spring 423 is fixedly connected to the first valve cover 422 and the valve core cover 424. The valve core cover 424 is slidably connected to the first valve cover 422 and the first valve body 421. The upper side of the first valve cover 422 and the valve core cover 424 constitutes a main air chamber 425, and the lower side of the first valve body 421 and the valve core cover 424 constitutes a pressure inlet chamber 426.
[0043] When the air pressure in the inner tank 22 is within the threshold range, the pilot valve 43 is closed, and the high-pressure hydrogen in the main valve 42 is passed through the first bottom hole 4211, and flows back to the main air chamber 425 through the first side hole 4212, the throttle 44, the second valve body 431, and the third side hole 4312. At this time, the air pressure in the main air chamber 425 is equal to that in the pressure-inducing chamber 426. The valve core cover 424 is sealed and contacts the first valve body 421 under the action of the third spring 423, so that the first pressure relief port 4213 is not connected. The hydrogen in the pressure-inducing chamber 426 cannot push open the valve core cover 424, and the high-pressure hydrogen in the inner tank 22 is not connected to the outside. When the air pressure rises abnormally, the pilot valve 43 is opened, and the air in the main air chamber 425 is The hydrogen enters the pilot valve 43 through the second side hole 4221 and is discharged, and the hydrogen in the pressure chamber 426 enters the pilot valve 43 through the first side hole 4212 and the throttle 44 and is discharged. Since the throttle 44 blocks the discharge of the hydrogen in the pressure chamber 426, the discharge rate of the hydrogen in the main air chamber 425 is much greater than the discharge rate of the hydrogen in the pressure chamber 426. The air pressure in the pressure chamber 426 is greater than the air pressure in the main air chamber 425. The valve core cover 424 moves toward the direction close to the first valve cover 422 to squeeze the third spring 423. The hydrogen in the main air chamber 425 is discharged into the outside through the first pressure relief port 4213. As the air pressure decreases, the pilot valve 43 is closed to achieve the effect of emergency pressure relief.
[0044] like Figure 7 As shown, the pilot valve 43 also includes a second valve cover 432, a fourth spring 433 and a valve core column 435. The second valve cover 432 is fixedly connected to the second valve body 431 and the servo motor 434. The second valve body 431 is also provided with a second pressure relief port 4313. The second pressure relief port 4313 is arranged on the side of the second valve body 431 away from the third side hole 4312. The fourth spring 433 is fixedly connected to the output end of the servo motor 434 and the valve core column 435. The valve core column 435 is slidably connected to the second valve cover 432 and the second valve body 431.
[0045] When the air pressure in the inner tank 22 rises abnormally, the hydrogen pressure in the second valve body 431 overcomes the set pressure of the fourth spring 433, and the hydrogen pressure pushes the valve core column 435 to move toward the second valve cover 432. The valve core column 435 squeezes the fourth spring 433. The valve core column 435 no longer blocks the second pressure relief port 4313, so that the pilot valve 43 is connected to the outside world. The servo motor 434 outputs torque to twist the fourth spring 433 away from one end of the valve core column 435, thereby changing the set pressure of the fourth spring 433 and adjusting the sensitivity of the pilot valve 43.
[0046] like Figure 8 As shown, the pressure equalizing mechanism 5 also includes a first gear 53, a second gear 54, a fan blade 55 and a crank 56. The second motor 52 is fixedly connected to the ring frame 51. The fan blades 55 and the crank 56 are each provided with a plurality of groups. The plurality of groups of fan blades 55 and the crank 56 are evenly distributed along the circumference of the ring frame 51. The output end of the second motor 52 is fixedly connected to the first gear 53. The first gear 53 is meshed with the tooth surfaces of the second gear 54. The second gear 54 is fixedly connected to a group of fan blades 55. The fan blades 55 are rotatably connected to the ring frame 51, and the fan blades 55 are hinged to the crank 56.
[0047] The hydrogen compressed to a high-pressure state is passed into the inner tank 22 through the intake valve pipe 23 and the air inlet 211. The high-pressure hydrogen blows on the fan blades 55, causing the ring frame 51 to rotate as a whole. When the air pressure sensor 27 detects that the pressure distribution in the inner tank 22 is uneven, an electrical signal is sent to the second motor 52. The second motor 52 outputs a fixed-axis torque to the first gear 53. Through the meshing of the tooth surfaces of the first gear 53 and the second gear 54, the torque is transmitted to a group of fan blades 55, causing the fan blades 55 to rotate around their own axes. Several groups of fan blades 55 evenly distributed along the circumference of the ring frame 51 are hinged and synchronized by the crank 56. When the inclination angle between the fan blades 55 and the ring frame 51 increases, the high-pressure hydrogen passing through the fan blades 55 is accelerated to diffuse to the inner wall of the inner tank 22, so that the hydrogen in the inner tank 22 is evenly distributed.
[0048] The working principle of the present invention is as follows: external hydrogen is introduced into the hydrogen inlet pipe 35, the first motor 33 outputs a fixed-axis torque to the eccentric disk 372 to make an eccentric circular motion, the outer edge of the second vortex track 374 contacts the limit ring 376, the second vortex track 374 and the first vortex track 373 mesh with each other to form a plurality of dynamically changing chambers, the hydrogen at the outer edge is compressed and squeezed toward the center of the vortex by multiple chambers step by step, and is introduced into the next stage through the vent hole 3711 between the two adjacent groups, the eccentric column 378 transmits the torque to the eccentric disk 372 of the next stage, and the hydrogen is compressed and introduced into the next stage multiple times. In the inner tank 22, a plurality of air pressure sensors 2 monitor the air pressure at various locations in the inner tank 22, and the exhaust valve pipe 24 is opened to discharge hydrogen. When the air pressure in the inner tank 22 is within the threshold range, the pilot valve 43 is closed, and the hydrogen in the pressure chamber 426 flows back to the main air chamber 425 through the first side hole 4212, the throttle 44, the second valve body 431, and the third side hole 4312. At this time, the air pressure in the main air chamber 425 is equal to that in the pressure chamber 426, and the valve core cover 424 seals and contacts the first valve body 421 to prevent the first pressure relief port 4213 from being connected. When the air pressure rises abnormally, The hydrogen pressure in the second valve body 431 overcomes the set pressure of the fourth spring 433, the hydrogen valve core column 435 is displaced, no longer blocking the second pressure relief port 4313, so that the pilot valve 43 is connected to the outside, and the servo motor 434 outputs a torque to twist the fourth spring 433, changing the set pressure of the fourth spring 433 and adjusting the sensitivity of the pilot valve 43. The hydrogen in the main air chamber 425 passes through the second side hole 4221 into the pilot valve 43 for discharge, and the hydrogen in the pressure chamber 426 passes through the first side hole 4212 and the throttle 44 into the pilot valve 4 3 is discharged. Since the throttle 44 blocks the hydrogen in the pressure chamber 426, the discharge speed of the hydrogen in the main air chamber 425 is much greater than the discharge speed of the hydrogen in the pressure chamber 426. The air pressure in the pressure chamber 426 is greater than that in the main air chamber 425. The valve core cover 424 moves and squeezes the third spring 423. The hydrogen in the main air chamber 425 is discharged to the outside through the first pressure relief port 4213. As the air pressure decreases, the pilot valve 43 is closed to achieve emergency pressure relief. The heat exchange coil 25 circulates the temperature control medium to ensure that the temperature of the inner tank 22 is constant, thereby avoiding explosion caused by the increase of hydrogen pressure in a high temperature environment.
